This is another very interesting story, a story about a gambler. For adventurers, gambling must be an indispensable personality trait. Gamblers have the same risk probability of winning and losing.

The protagonist is a typical gambler. He has nothing on him and is in debt. He will still send the last bit of money to some hope, such as lottery tickets or horse betting. But often hope in others or other things, and often disappointment is greater than hope.

They cheer up quickly. They see an opportunity in the newspaper and make a decision right away. This is not only a force for action but also a forced desire to survive. Such people will not have procrastination, because they know not to act. The consequences will be even more tragic.

In his opinion, a job that is tailor-made for him. Someone is willing to pay to find someone to travel with him, not only to help him escape, but also to pay for the cost of the journey. Such a good thing, could it be that all luck has been lost .

The temptation is always step by step. When he encounters a greater temptation, he will find that the next opportunity will be greater than the previous one, so he has no reluctance to abandon the previous goal and put everything into a bigger one. The bet.

We seem to have won, but how can people count as heaven? Our self-righteous cleverness tends to make everything worse. Thinking back to ourselves, is it the same?

Alfred Hitchcock Presents quotes

  • [Hitchcock arrives for his introduction dressed in a safari outfit and pith helmet]

    Alfred Hitchcock - Host: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to darkest Hollywood. Night brings a stillness to the jungle. It is so quiet, you can hear a name drop. The savage beasts have already begun gathering at the water holes to quench their thirst. Now one should be especially alert. The vicious table-hopper is on the prowl, and the spotted back-biter may lurk behind a potted palm. To take me through this most savage of lands, I have hired a native guide.

    [He snaps his fingers. An old man joins him, wearing a billboard sign that reads, "Maps of the Movie Stars' Homes - For Sale"]

    Alfred Hitchcock - Host: He claims to know where I can find the big ones.

  • Alfred Hitchcock - Host: [introducing commercials at the end of the show] I hope you have enjoyed our program. Seeing a murder on television can help to work off one's antagonisms. And if you haven't any antagonisms, these commercials will give you some.
